Ohhh this is an interesting take on minesweeper! At first I thought I was just playing minesweeper, but once I noticed I could plant crops that changed everything! Love the application of the theme and mixing up a classic!

Nice take on minesweeper.

I don't know how to play minesweeper. I got -$254 at the end. Cool concept!

great and unique idea! it did take a while for me to realise that u could plant crops though! i do suck at minesweeper but it was still very fun

Interesting mechanics! I will come back to play more with this to get full understanding.

ah, the good ol' minesweeper. Thank you for the nostalgia and good game!

That was a really fun take on minesweeper, and freshened up the game a bit! Nice!!

Cool take on the old game! The numbers' color has a low contrast imo, hard to distinguish (could be just me).

The time limit for each round is similar to mine sweeping, and there is no time to think.

nice, I really like the replanting mechanic!

I highly recommend you to also include the "How to play description" on this site! Totally missed that at first. What the different plants do should be a bit better explained. It is an interesting take on minesweeper, but I feel like I am still missing some mechanics of your game

I also missed it wasn't just a minesweeper clone at first. You should definitely add something to the description here about that. Definitely an interesting variation. I like it. The infected crops disappearing can usually resolve the states where you really can't tell which ones are bad. A nice side effect of the new mechanics.

I love the combo of minesweeper with planting game. But what I really love is how discovering min... infected plants and spraying rewards my action. Very rewarding! I may need to do better next time cause harvesting and planting requires 2 different way of thinking.

The game is fun and amazing! I like how you combine minesweeper with planting and harvesting, really cool concept! Maybe add some music and sound effects to make it more polish I suggest.

xcarl 2023-01-15 17:41

A super interesting idea. Maybe adding a small tutorial would help, since I'm a little lost with the different mechanics. Good job!

Hey there, this was pretty awesome! I ended up playing your game on stream!

Here's the VoD so you can jump to your chapter and see it again! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NYvmJ8_8kww

It's been ages since I played minesweep, lovely bit of nostalgia there. Fits in with the theme well

Cool twist on a classic game! It was a bit clunky and stressful at first, especially immediately being thrown in with a time limit, but once I understood everything I got into a really good groove! I still do think that it was a bit awkward having to press shift along with clicking to plant when that's the only action you can perform on an empty tile anyway, but it wasn't that big of a deal; just a minor nitpick. :smile:

Enjoyed how innovative it was for a variation on a common theme, like minesweeper. The planting was the neatest part. The blowing up of the plants would have been interesting, but i guess we can harvest them instead. xD

This is cute! It's like farming minesweeping, well done!
